Re: [Flashcoders] AS2 Sound.stop()
Hello :)
I use in my opensource framework a model to register all sounds in my
application and manipulate all sounds.
The SoundLibrary class :
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/src/andromeda/media/SoundLibrary.as
See the example of the class :

}
if (sound != null)
{
message += , sound: + sound ;
}
trace( message ) ;
}
var lib:SoundLibrary = new SoundLibrary() ;
lib.addGlobalEventListener( new Delegate(this, debug) ) ;
lib.addSound( sound_1 ) ; // sound_1 is the link name of the sound
in the library
lib.addSound( sound_2 ) ;
// lib.addSounds( [sound_1, sound_2] ) ; // use this method to
register a array collection of sounds ids.

Objects work pretty much like hashtables (from my understanding).
Hashtables generally don't guarantee any kind of ordering. Flash may
enforce some kind of ordering (y seems to be going in reverse order of
when things were added) but I don't know of any ordering and generally
treat it as arbitrary.
Now, if you were using Arrays then your ordering would be guaranteed
(for-in loops go backwards through the array I believe).

In my opensource framework i use more powerful Delegate implementation and

Re: [Flashcoders] as3 code!!

In AS3 in your main class who extends the Sprite class... if you use the
flash.utils.describeType function you can see the Sprite class isn't
dynamic :
package
{
import flash.utils.describeType;
public class Test extends Sprite
{
public function Test()
{
trace( describeType( this ) ) ;
}
}
}
result in the output console :
type name=vegas base=flash.display::Sprite isDynamic=false
isFinal=false isStatic=false..
If the class isn't dynamic you can't use the dynamic keyword :
package
{
import flash.utils.describeType;
public dynamic class Test extends Sprite
{
public function Test()
{
for (var i:uint = 0 ; i10 ; i++)
{
this[somevarname+i] = i;

Re: [Flashcoders] AS3 Events, Delegates and passing parameters
Hello :) it's not a problem ;) only a supplement to highlight this feature.

The clone() method allows you to create copies of an event object. The toString() method allows you to generate a string representation of the properties of an event object along with their values. Both of these methods are used internally by the event model system, but are exposed to developers for general use. For advanced developers creating subclasses of the Event class, you must override and implement versions of both utility methods to ensure that the event subclass will work properly. /quote quote when creating an Event subclass you must override the clone() and toString() methods to provide functionality specific to the subclass. /quote I've read about it first in the Flex 2 docs though (which is alot better than the Flash docs IMO): http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/createevents_140_5.html quote You are required to override the Event.clone() method in your subclass.

Come to think of it, even in AS1 it would be better done with an array. The last time I would have used such a structure was in Flash 4 Actions. One exception might be for MovieClip/Button/TextField instances in AS2. Often in AS2 it was handy to grab those by their name, since they are often made through the IDE rather than through code. The new way of retrieving a composed display object by its name is the getChildByName() function of the DisplayObjectContainer class (which Sprite, among others, extends). So you could do something like this within some class that extends DisplayObjectContainer: var currentObject:DisplayObject = getChildByName(someVarName + someIndex); I'm still not sure if that would be the most elegant solution in most situations, though.

You install the sources (and the sources of VEGAS) and you can read the
source code to understand my methodology to create an application.
AST'r is a Conceptual framework (templates)..
With AST'r i'm going to write tutorials to understand the FrontController
and MVC pattern with VEGAS, the Localization and config tools based on eden

DOM2/3 event model in AS2/AS3/SSAS (
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/wiki/VegasTutorialsEvents) etc...
For the moment in AST'r you can find in AS2 the main source code with an
easy example to create the basic implementation of the application :
http://astr.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/AS2/trunk/src/astro/
To test and launch the code you can open the AS2/trunk/bin/_fla/asto.fla
file and compile with Flash or MTASC.
You can find too ... two examples :
http://astr.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/AS2/trunk/examples/
- eGallery : A first example to creates a dynamic picture gallery with local
data or MYSQL/AMFPHP datas
- eChat (in progress, no stable for the moment) : an example to use VEGAS
with an client/server(FMS) application

Why not use a hashtable instead of an array? Give your elements all
unique IDs (you could even just do an incrementing integer). A
hashtable would give you faster lookup (don't have to iterate over the
array searching for it) and you can remove hashtable entries without
messing up any kind of ordering.

Hello list,
i have a page object that contains has a Array that holds
pageElements. This is a storage for elements with an iPageElement
interface.
The page object has an destroy() method. When page.destroy() is
called, it will loop trough the page.pageElements Array using an
iterator. Every iPageElement broadcasts an onElementKilled message
when is has been destroyed. When a pageElement broadcast this
message,
the page need to continue in deleting the next element in the
page.pageElement Array.
The callback method onElementKilled in the page instance, searches
for
the element that has been deleted and then removes it from the
page.pageElements Array. This is where i think a problem rises,
because if the page.pageElements array is updated during the process,
the index does not match the element to remove anymore. How can I
solve this potential risk?
Another question, the array that is passes into the iterator is a
reference to the pageElements Array. Does this mean, that if I delete
an element from this array from within the iterator, the
page.pageElements array is modified?
I hope my question is clear..
thank you in advance.

Re: [Flashcoders] creating variable names dynamically in AS3
Hello :)
for me your notation in AS2 is false too... you can't use the 'var' keyword
and the 'this' keyword after. The compiler throw an error.
If you want use dynamic variables ... for me the best way it's an HashMap or
an Object :
# Use an Object :
var items = {} ;
for (var i:Number = 0 ; i10 ; i++)
{
var item:Type = new Type() ; // you can test the type of your object
with a local variable in your loop
items[ my_var + i] = item ;
}
# Use an HashMap implementation like my implementation in VEGAS :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/
Documentation : http://vegas.ekameleon.net/docs/vegas/data/map/HashMap.html
Example :
import vegas.data.map.HashMap ;
var map:HashMap = new HashMap() ;
for (var i:Number = 0 ; i10 ; i++)
{
var value:Type = new Type() ; // you can test the type of your object
with a local variable in your loop
var name:String = key + i ;
map.put( key, value ) ;
}
trace( map.get( 'key2' ) ) ;
trace( map.containsKey('key3') ) ;
trace( map.isEmpty() ) ;
// etc..
EKA+ :)

Hi,
In AS2 in a for loop I would create a variable dynamically with:
var this[nsPrefix + NS]:Namespace = new Namespace(ns.uri);
In AS3 I get an error:
1084: Syntax Error: expecting identifier before this.
How would I name this variable dynamically in AS3?
thanks,

Re: [Flashcoders] Iterator question
Hello :)
You can use if you want my opensource framework and all this ADT (abstract
data type) :
In VEGAS you can find the package vegas.data.* with an ADT library based on
the JAVA Collections and the Jakarta Collections Framework.
Page of the project : http://code.google.com/p/vegas/
Install tutorial :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/wiki/InstallVEGASwithSVN
Example to use my ADT in AS2 in the SVN directory :
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/vegas/data/
The documentation : http://vegas.ekameleon.net/ (see vegas.data package)
See the vegas.data.iterator and vegas.data.map packages ;)

Why not use a hashtable instead of an array? Give your elements all
unique IDs (you could even just do an incrementing integer). A
hashtable would give you faster lookup (don't have to iterate over the
array searching for it) and you can remove hashtable entries without
messing up any kind of ordering.

Hello list,
i have a page object that contains has a Array that holds
pageElements. This is a storage for elements with an iPageElement
interface.
The page object has an destroy() method. When page.destroy() is
called, it will loop trough the page.pageElements Array using an
iterator. Every iPageElement broadcasts an onElementKilled message
when is has been destroyed. When a pageElement broadcast this message,
the page need to continue in deleting the next element in the
page.pageElement Array.
The callback method onElementKilled in the page instance, searches for
the element that has been deleted and then removes it from the
page.pageElements Array. This is where i think a problem rises,
because if the page.pageElements array is updated during the process,
the index does not match the element to remove anymore. How can I
solve this potential risk?
Another question, the array that is passes into the iterator is a
reference to the pageElements Array. Does this mean, that if I delete
an element from this array from within the iterator, the
page.pageElements array is modified?
I hope my question is clear..
thank you in advance.

Another question...
I have an array that varies in length:
var myArray:Array = [item0, item1, item2, etc];
And I have a few functions that require a different amount of parameters:
function test1(arg1:String, arg2:String){}
function test2(arg1:String, arg2:String, arg3:String, arg4:String){}
Depending on the situation one of the functions above is called and the
items in the myArray should be sent as parameters.
Something like this should happen:
test1(myArray[0], myArray[1], etc); However, the length of myArray varies
so
this won't work. When I create string like var str:String = myArray[0] +
,
+ myArray[1] + , etc everything is picked up as one parameter. Same goes
for sending the myArray as parameter.
It would require something like a for loop between de brackets...
Is it possible?

Tom

What I meant was events[new Date(year, month, day).getTime()] so you could use the calendar date itself as the key. It makes no difference what key you decide to use, as long as the key is easy to look up because it has relevance to the calendar date. It's probably less expensive to do [month + / + day + / + year] than creating a new Date object. And yes, in AS3, this would be a good candidate for a Dictionary object.

var target:String = getDisplayPathName(container2) ;

Hi all,
I am wondering how can I manage to find the path to where a MC belongs?
in AS2 when you wanted the target to where the MC was all you had to do
was
to trace the movieclip instance. For instance cosider the following
example:
var mc:MovieClip = this.attachMovie(something , something0 , 0);
var mc = mc.something0.attachMovie(somethingelse , somethingelse0 ,
0);
trace(mc) // _level0.something0.somethingelse0
In AS3 since everything is a class everytime I trace an object i get its
class name.
So is there anyway of know the tree to where a mc belongs?
thanks

You can find it here http://www.objectpainters.com/downloads/globalerrorhandler.zip I will post information about it soon, look here for some basic info http://objectpainters.com/blog/?p=32 Basically, its a simple RuntimeException that extends Error, so you still can do 'throw new RuntimeException (...)' You can subclass that as well for your own error types, an example is included for Assert and AssertionFailedException. What this class does is, you throw it, and you have to catch it and consume it (check the included example). If you do not consume the error, a default error handler (your global error handler) will be called. So even if you throw an error from an asynchronous call (eg the parse method of an xml callback) it will still be shown if you dont handle it.

Re: [Flashcoders] Fullscreen problem
Hello :) no solution for the moment for your problem :) The fullscreen mod disabled the input fields.. Adobe implement this restriction but i don't know why ? EKA+ :) 2007/7/6, Izaias / Grafikonstruct [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi everyone! I have created a website with fullscreen option, using the follow code: Stage.displayState = fullScreen (To enable fullscreen version) Stage.displayState = normal (to back normal view) But I have a big problem: My website have a form with some editable fields, and if I click in fullscreen button, the fields stop edit.

Re: [Flashcoders] Controllingt he volume of multiple sound objects at the same time
Hello :)
in my opensource framework (VEGAS) i use a SoundLibrary class to manage my
sounds...
http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/src/andromeda/media/SoundLibrary.as
Exemple :
{{{
import andromeda.media.SoundLibrary ;
var lib:SoundLibrary = new SoundLibrary() ;
lib.addSound( sound_1 ) ; // sound in the library with the link sound_1
lib.addSound( sound_2 ) ; // sound in the library with the link sound_2
lib.addSounds( [sound_3, sound_4] ) ; // add an Array of sounds in
the library
lib.loadSound( my_sound.mp3, sound5 ) ;
lib.loadSound( sound6.mp3 ) ; // add the external sound and auto
create the 'sound6' id of the sound in the library
lib.setVolume( 50 ) ; // all sounds in the library changes the volume.
lib.getSound(sound2).setVolume( 40 ) ; // change the volume of the
'sound2' Sound reference in the library.
}}}
This class inherit the SoundModel class :
http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/src/andromeda/media/SoundModel.as
You can use an MVC pattern with this library with a global event flow etc..
This class is really easy to use :) Use the addSound or the addSounds ou the
loadSound methods to register your local or external sounds..
You can find the VEGAS project page in Google Code :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/
You can find the tutorial to install VEGAS :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/wiki/InstallVEGASwithSVN
You can find the documentation of my framework :
http://vegas.ekameleon.net/docs
You can find the SoundLibrary reference :
http://vegas.ekameleon.net/docs/andromeda/media/SoundLibrary.html
You can find the SoundModel reference :
http://vegas.ekameleon.net/docs/andromeda/media/SoundModel.html
You can see my AS2 opensource template AST'r .. in the sources of the
project you can see my personal usage of my Framework.. in this context i
use an external file of config to defines all sounds and i load an external
sound to shared the sounds of the the application
http://code.google.com/p/astr/
EKA+ :)
2007/7/6, Rákos Attila [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Sound objects associated with the same movie clip share their
properties (volume, etc.), so if you change the volume through one of
them, the change will be reflected by others, too. That is because in
fact sound properties belong to movie clips and not the Sound objects,
and Sound objects only reflect the sound settings of the associated movie
clip.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Controllingt he volume of multiple sound objects at
the same time
--===--
Hey there. I am trying to control the volume of a number of sound objects
that have their own individual volume levels. I want to be able to mute them
or allow them to play at the volume that has been set for them. I was
thinking that I could do this by storing the values in arrays and then
looping through these each time the sound is muted/unmuted but I am sure
there must be an easier way.
Any suggestsions v gratefully received :)
Here is what I have so far:
var sound1:Sound = new Sound(this);
sound1.setVolume(60);
var sound2:Sound = new Sound(this);
sound2.setVolume(20);
sound1.loadSound('an.mp3', false);
sound2.loadSound('another.mp3', false);

Re: [Flashcoders] Problems opening windows in Flash 8 w/Java Script...
Hello :)
in flash8 you must use the ExternalInterface class :)
if ( ExternalInterface.available )
{
ExternalInterface.call( openWindow , params ) ;
}
EKA+ :)
2007/7/3, Jay Carlson [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
so I've been working on a new flash project that opens new windows to
display details of projects. well, I noticed that if I publish the
swf as Flash 8, the java script won't work. is this a common
problem? or am I just putting the wrong code in?
this is what I'm using on the flash side::
on (release) {
getURL(javascript:openWindow('http://www.dillingerkovach.com/
specdetail.html','newWindow','toolbar=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=0,resizable
=0,width=450,height=250,left=120,top=180'));
}
is there another way to do it? it's not really a problem, because
I'm not using anything in my swf that actually needs to be published
as Flash 8 (filters or the like). but some day I might...any ideas?
Jay

Re: [Flashcoders] Stopping a Movie Clip animation

you can test in AS3 the undocumented method : addFrameScript()
Usage : *MovieClip.addFrameScript(frame:uint,notify:Function)*

public function MyClip()
{
this.addFrameScript( this.totalFrames, this.stop) ; //

2007/6/24, Mark Badger [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Hi,
I'm re-writing a beginning Flash class for designers. I used Movie Clips
so that they would just adjust to using movie clips for interactivity as
they move on to more complex topics. Graphic symbols vs. Movie Clips
would just confuse students and added a layer of confusion that made
life harder.
Now in AS 3 I can't add stops to the first frame of the movie clip. No
big deal, but then I can't add stops to the last frame of a Movie Clip
either. Is the only way to stop a Movie Clip from looping is to check
if the last frame been reached and then stop it? This seems like an
overwhelming amount of thought for a newbie to grasp. And certainly puts
this poor teacher in tears trying to explain a conditional in the second
class of Flash.

Re: [Flashcoders] AS2: Multilanguage-Listener
hello :)
you can use my opensource framework and this extensions with the
localization model of ASGard (ext of VEGAS)
Page of the Framework project : http://code.google.com/p/vegas/
Install VEGAS and this extensions :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/wiki/InstallVEGASwithSVN
Example to use the localization model in the svn of the project :
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/system/
My event localization model is based on the W3C dom2/3 event model test
the Localization 02 - Eden.fla example.. i use Eden format to creates
external files to configurate my localizations. but you can use JSON with my
framework or use my framework and this implementation to use XML(in AS2 xml
is no speed... Eden more easy to use)
More information about Eden format : http://code.google.com/p/edenrr/
More information about JSON format : http://www.json.org/
I use eden to create my configuration file too...
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/config/
You can use too my Opensource documentation framework AST'r :

2007/6/8, JOR [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Eka, was right about the notation being the problem but I thought I
would mention something small I noticed.
You declare delay as a private property of the class but then declare it
again as a local variable inside your doSomething() method. If you
don't need to access the value of delay outside of the doSomething()
method I would remove it at a private property of the class. Otherwise,
if you do need it outside of the doSomething method I would remove the
var keyword from in front of the assignment so that you are assigning to
the class' property and not creating a new local variable.
You might also want to be consistant with your variable names. You
prefix Time with n for a Number but don't do so with delay.
Also, you can check out my Timer class for something like this:

a href=asfunction:myMethod,param1,param2Link/a
In your code... in the parent of your textfield (the parent movieclip), you
can creates the method myMethod
example :
var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat(arial, 12) ;
format.bold = true ;
var target:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip(mc, 1) ;
target._x = 25 ;
target._y = 25 ;
target.myMethod = function( arg1, arg2 )
{
trace( callback : + arg1 + : + arg2) ;
}
var field:TextField = target.createTextField( field, 1, 0 , 0, 200, 20) ;
field.autoSize = true ;
field.border = true ;
field.setNewTextFormat( format ) ;
field.html = true ;
field.htmlText = 'a href=asfunction:myMethod,param1,param2Link/a' ;
You can use TextField.StyleSheet to apply a css style in your fields etc
Read the actionscript reference with the words TextField and asfunction :)
EKA+ :)

Hello again, a more difficult question maybe...
Is there any way for me to capture a user click on an href tag inside of
a CSS formatted html text field?
Here is what I do:
- CDATA formatted text in an XML file.
- load it and associate a CSS file to a generated text field at run time.
- resulting a tags have links assigned to them.
- user 'clicks' them - event capture??
In other words: what I need to do is to hear the event so I can dispatch
an event to my Controller class [who then sends info to the stats class,
and opens a browser window with predetermined formatting].
At the moment I can't see a way for this event to be heard by my
controller. Maybe this is simple? maybe its impossible, or complex...
any ideas? Javascript maybe?
Thanks for your help!
seb.

Re: [Flashcoders] compiling swf without flash
Hello :) you can use http://swfmill.org/ and http://www.mtasc.org/ to do it :) EKA+ :) 2007/5/15, Bas Quentin // Byontik [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I would like to know if you know a solution for the following problem.. I just would like to know if it's possible and what tools you would use.. I need to build a flash mediaplayer that plays swf and mp3 files. BUT because the mediaplayer will be used in an environment that doesn't support external files the media files must be included with the player in 1 swffile. This will be done by people that don't know how to use flash. My guess would be making a page where the user can select a media file and change the desired settings (title, fontsize,..) and that compiles a new swf file for the user. Creating the player is no problem but I would like to know if it's possible to generate a single swf file from 2 separate files without using flash. The process would be similar to: importing the media file to the library of the media player and exporting the file. thx Gr Bas ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com ___ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com

Re: [Flashcoders] Quick syntax q: how to write a function that canreceive an undefined number of parameters
Hello :)
Yes it's funny .. i forget the 0 is a boolean in a conditional
instruction... the problem with this loop is the negative values. but it's a
good notation.
After tests... in AS2 this method is more speed.
var ar:Array = new Array(50) ;
var time ;
Key.addListener(this) ;
onKeyDown = function()
{
var result ;
var code:Number = Key.getCode() ;
var copy:Array = [].concat(ar)
var len:Number = copy.length ;
switch (code)
{
case Key.UP :
{
time = getTimer() ;
for( var i:Number = 0 ; ilen ; i++ )
{
result = copy[len] ;
}
time = getTimer() - time ;
trace( for speed : + time + ms) ;
break ;
}
case Key.DOWN :
{
time = getTimer() ;
while( len-- )
{
result = copy[len] ;
}
time = getTimer() - time ;
trace( while(len--) speed : + time + ms) ;
break ;
}
case Key.LEFT :
{
time = getTimer() ;
while( --len -1 )
{
result = copy[len] ;
}
time = getTimer() - time ;
trace( while(--len -1) speed : + time + ms) ;
break ;
}
case Key.RIGHT :
{
time = getTimer() ;
while( --len -(-1) )
{
result = copy[len] ;
}
time = getTimer() - time ;
trace( while(--len -(-1)) speed : + time + ms) ;
break ;
}
}
}
for speed : 329 ms
while(len--) speed : 305 ms
while(--len -1) speed : 324 ms
while(--len -(-1)) speed : 418 ms
Thanks :)
EKA+ :)
2007/5/11, Steven Sacks [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I think he was pointing out how the loop could be optimized even further.
Pre-decrementing is faster than post-decrementing.
However, his greater than comparison slows it down. The right way to do
it is:
while (--i -(-1))
{
}
since subtraction is faster than addition.
This is all academic, though. I used to use --i -(-1) but I gave it up
for the readability of while (i--).
This is my new favorite:
while (i--) i++;
;)

Re: [Flashcoders] Question on removeEventListener and Delegate callback

use a variable to register your virtual proxy function :

this.currentDisplayObject.addEventListener('onContentCleared' , listener ) ;
//removing it
this.currentDisplayObject.removeEventListener('onContentCleared' , listener

Now you can keep the variable in memory ;)
PS : if you want use a better event model, you can try my event model in my

Re: Re: [Flashcoders] LoadVars array.length problem
Hello :)
for me your method is not good :)
Use JSON or Eden format in your external text file.
Example JSON = Javascript Object Notation ( http://json.org/ )
JSON is better to parse Array, Object, String, Boolean, Number ...
You can use JSON with my openSource framework :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/
Serialize (ActionScript to String ) :
import vegas.string.JSON ;
var a:Array = [2, true, coucou] ;
var o:Object = { prop1 : 1 , prop2 : 2 } ;
var s:String = hello world ;
var n:Number = 4 ;
var b:Boolean = true ;
trace(* a : + JSON.serialize( a ) ) ;
trace(* o : + JSON.serialize( o ) ) ;
trace(* s : + JSON.serialize( s ) ) ;
trace(* n : + JSON.serialize( n ) ) ;
trace(* b : + JSON.serialize( b ) ) ;
Deserialize (String to ActionScript )
import vegas.string.JSON ;
var source:String = '[ { prop1 : 0xFF , prop2:2,
prop3:hello, prop4:true} , 2, true, 3, [3, 2] ]' ;
var o = JSON.deserialize(source) ;
var l:Number = o.length ;
for (var i:Number = 0 ; il ; i++)
{
trace( + i + : + o[i] + - typeof :: + typeof(o[i])) ;
if (typeof(o[i]) == object)
{
for (var each:String in o[i])
{
trace( + each + : + o[i][each] + :: +
typeof(o[i][each]) ) ;
}
}
}
If your string representation contains an error :
import vegas.string.JSON ;
import vegas.string.errors.JSONError ;
var source:String = [3, 2, ;
try
{
var o = JSON.deserialize(source) ;
}
catch(e:JSONError)
{
trace( e.toString()) ; // output: [JSONError] Bad Array, at:6 in [3, 2,
}
Now.. with a LoadVars :
import vegas.string.JSON ;
var result ;
var loader = new LoadVars() ;
loader.onData = function ( source:String )
{
result = JSON.deserialize(source) ;
trace(result) ;
}
loader.load(data.txt) ;
In your external data.txt you can write an array with the Javascript
notation :
[ 1 , 2 , true, hello world , { prop1 : value1, prop2 : value2 } ,
0xFF ]
To install my framework you can read this page :
http://code.google.com/p/vegas/wiki/InstallVEGASwithSVN
More easy... more speed :)
EKA+ :)
2007/5/5, John Trentini [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Thanks sebastian,
I had tried something like:
menuLoadVars.onLoad = function(){
var my = menuLoadVars.split(\r);
for (var i = 0; imy.length; i++) {
trace(my[i])
}
}
No joy, perhaps I am using the wrong syntax?

Dump the textfile idea and use XML instead, which is far better suited for
stuff like menu's.
?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 ?
menu
item label=about us /

Subject: [Flashcoders] LoadVars array.length problem
Hello,
I am trying to generate two separate menus dynamically and populated by
the content of tow text files.
The text files have the following info.
menuItems.txt contains:
var1=about us
var2=news
var3=portfolio etc.
submenuItems.txt contains:
var1=branding
var2=interactives
var3=marks etc.
these will be updateable files with any numbers of elements added to or
removed from.
I have this code at the root level:
menuLoadVars = new LoadVars();
menuLoadVars.load(menuItems.txt);
subMenuLoadVars = new LoadVars();
subMenuLoadVars.load(submenuItems.txt);
How can I generate an array that only contains the values of each item
if I don't know the length of the text file?
I have tried:
menuItems.onLoad = function(){
for(i=0; imenuItems.length; i++){
trace(menuItemds[i]);
}
}
but the menuItems.length is undefined and does not return a value.
What can I do instead?
Any tip would be a big help.
Thanks

Re: [Flashcoders] AS2: Design Pattern: event based or pointer? from model or controller?
Hello :)
To implements MVC or a FrontController in your application you can try to
use the event model of my opensource framework based with the DOM2/3 of the
W3C model events, example :

2007/5/3, sebastian [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Hello folks,
My next question is conceptual...
I've made good progress on many of the classes in my application, but
I'm now caught in a dilemma regarding approach.
As mentioned in a previous mail, I'm building a system that can be
divided into two: 1 part does general world 3D animation until the pages
are opened; this was relatively easy to make... the second part of the
system deals with generating pages [its a templating MVC system]; this
is the tough part!
At the center of the application is my class: PageController
Linked to it are 3 other Classes: PageModel [to load new pages],
StatsCollector [to record new pages called] and MouseController [told to
turn off 3D motion when pages are opened].
I was planning on using an object-instance pointer in the PageController
formed during its construction, to tell the associated Classes that a
new event has ocured, but someone pointed out to me that I should be
using an event based system instead [so that's its easier to add new
Classes that listen to the Controller in the future]
Here is what I have:
class com.blabla.PageController {
//Object pointers
private var pageModel:Object;
private var statsCollector:Object;
private var mouseController:Object;
private var urlMapper:Object;
//Page open/close status
private var activeWindow:Boolean;
function PageController (
__pageModel:Object,
__mouseController:Object,
__statsCollector:Object,
__urlMapper:Object)
{
//Pointers:
this.pageModel = __pageModel;
this.statsCollector = __statsCollector;
this.mouseController = __mouseController;
this.urlMapper = __urlMapper;
//Set initial state:
this.activeWindow = false;
}
//this method is called by SWFAddress on url changes:
public function urlChange(__name:String):Void {
// MOUSE CONTROLLER
//set the page active true to turn off
//3D mouse system:
this.activeWindow = true;
//tell 3D mouse system to check status:
this.mouseController.checkWindowStatus();
// PAGE MODEL
//call URL mapper returns an XML file based
//on the url __name
//this XML file is then passed to the pageModel
//which will then notify the PageView of changes
this.pageModel.buildPage (this.urlMapper.convertLink
(__name));
// STATS COLLECTOR
//run the method in 'statscol' with url:
this.statsCollector.callURL(__name);
}
}
So, my question is... is this the right way to be sending events? By
making pointers and calling methods in connected classes? Also, should I
store my activeWindow parameter in the Controller? I have a feeling
its in the wrong Class; but from a Code-clarity perspective it does make
sense to have it here as the controller is a state-dispatcher...?
Or should I be using an event based system instead of pointers? If so,
could someone lightly outline what the difference would be like in such
a set up? I'm not very familiar with using events to drive app like
this. I'd be very thankful.
Here is the latest diagram of the system:

Re: [Flashcoders] How to call a global method like trace--not the class method?
Hello :)
Try this code :
class Debug
{
static public function trace(str:String):void { .. }
static public function initialize()
{
_global.WRITE = Debug.trace ;
}
}
/// in your code... first in your application :
Debug.initialize() ;
// now you can use the 2 solutions to debug your application :
Debug.trace( hello world ) ;
or
_global.WRITE( hello world ) ;
EKA+ :)
2007/4/28, Douglas Pearson [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
We have a class used in a lot of code that has a trace method in it:
class Debug {
public function trace(str:String):void { .. }
}
Now we'd like to call the regular trace method from within that class,
but
all of our efforts call to the class's trace method.
In C++ you use :: to indicate a global method so it would be ::trace().
Is there anyway to do something similar in ActionScript? Obviously, we
could rename our method to something else but that would mean changing a
lot
of existing code.
Thanks,
Doug

Re: [Flashcoders] Why does this work?!
Hello :)
in AS2 you can create constants with the ASSetProgFlags global method :
public static var CONNECTED:String = CONNECTED ;
public static var FAILURE:String= FAILURE ;
public static var NOT_CONNECTED:String = NOT_CONNECTED;
private static var __ASPF__ = _global.ASSetPropFlags( ConnectionState ,
null , 7, 7 ) ;
ConnectionState is the name of your enumeration static class :)
For me.. your code is ok :
public function setConnectionState(cs:String):Void
{
switch(cs)
{
case ConnectionState.CONNECTED :
case ConnectionState.FAILURE :
{
break;
}
default :
{
cs = ConnectionState.NOT_CONNECTED ;
}
}
this._connectionState = cs ;
}
EKA+ :)
2007/4/17, Andy Herrman [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I just realized that there are a number of switch statements in my
code which probably shouldn't work, yet appear to, and I'm wondering
why.
Here's a really simple example. I have a class that tracks the
connection state of my app, with the following values used as the
states (read-only attributes simulating constants):
public static function get CONNECTED():String { return CONNECTED; }
public static function get FAILURE():String { return FAILURE; }
public static function get NOT_CONNECTED():String { return
NOT_CONNECTED; }
In the code that lets you set the state to a particular value it does
a sanity check to make sure the state value is one that's expected
(since in theory the user could provide any string value):
public function setConnectionState(cs:String):Void {
switch(cs) {
case ConnectionState.CONNECTED:
case ConnectionState.FAILURE:
case ConnectionState.NOT_CONNECTED:
break;
default:
cs = ConnectionState.NOT_CONNECTED;
break;
}
this._connectionState = cs;
}
Now in Java switch statements must use constants for the case values.
You can do something like I just did, but the variables being
referenced must be declared final (so the compiler knows they won't
change). There isn't any equivalent to this in Flash (I simulate
constants by doing read only properties), so why does the case
statement work? Does flash actually execute the stuff after the
'case' keyword? What happens if multiple of those things return the
same value (for instance, say both CONNECTED and FAILURE returned
foo)?

Hi list,
I was working in a project using Flash develop and mtasc, and i realized
that Delegate isn't working properly, as in The function specified into
the
create() method in Delegate doesn't fire.
so i decided to create simple class just to test the Delegate.createMethod
to know whether the problem is within my project or not
i got a Main class that calls another class called New.as
Note: I had set the USEMX option in flash develop to true...
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class New {
function New() {
_root.onEnterFrame = Delegate.create(this, traceIt);
}
private function traceIt() {
trace(tracing);
}
}
well this should trace tracing on frame rate, but it doesn't... even if
i
don't use delegate and i i do:
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class New {
function New() {
_root.onEnterFrame = function () {
traceIt();//of course this wont work but i thought that trying
won't
hurt.
};
}
private function traceIt() {
trace(tracing);
}
}
same result is someone aware why is this happening?
thanks in advance

I've got an AS 2.0 (Flash 8) SWF that creates a class, and traces a
property on that class... Something like this:
foo = new Thingy();
trace(foo.test);
All the class does is initialize that property; something like this:
class Thingy {
public var test:String;
public function Thingy() {
test = hello;
}
}
This is pretty basic stuff -- and it works as expected. When run, it
simply traces hello. I then create an AS3 / Flash 9 app that loads
the aforementioned SWF... Something like this:
As2thing = new Loader();
addChild(As2thing);
As2thing.load(new URLRequest(as2thing.swf));
Then suddenly, as2thing.swf doesn't quite behave the same; the Thingy's
constructor doesn't get called -- it traces undefined instead. Any
idea why?

Re: [Flashcoders] Enumerating properties from outside an instance.
Hello :)
Your object is a primitive object ? or a object with custom instance inside

Do you use AS2 classes in your code ?
Try the ASSetPropFlags global function to destroy the protection of the
object :
var ref = this.someNestedInstance ;
trace( + ref) ;
_global.ASSetPropFlags( ref , null, 0, 1) ;
for (var property:String in ref)
{
trace(property) ;

Thanks John,
My loop is even simpler. I failed to mention that I need to examine nested
MovieClip instances for functions. Variables seem to appear as expected,
but
functions only appear for the current scope. Very strange.
Works as expected:
for (var propertyIdentifier:String in this)
{
trace(propertyIdentifier);
}
Does not work as expected:
for (var propertyIdentifier:String in this.someNestedInstance)
{
trace(propertyIdentifier);
}

You can do it; you must have an error in your code.
for (var prop:String in clip)
{
var subObject:Object = clip[prop];
for (var otherProp:String in subObject)
{
trace(otherProp + : + subObject[otherProp]);
}
}
It should look like that, but not horrible.

Subject: [Flashcoders] Enumerating properties from outside

I can't figure this out.
I can set up a for...in loop to show me all the
(enumerable) properties -- variables and functions -- on the
MovieClip instance where I place the loop, but I can't
enumerate properties for other (nested) MovieClip instances
by simply changing the focus object of that same for...in loop.
Why not?
If I move the enumerating loop into the nested clips it
works as expected.

Actually, I had been meaning to post again because I had lost my code

a response here and I lost it, as well as my code that was working. if
anyone can post again on how to get one class to dispatch a CUSTOM event
and get another CUSTOM class to listen to that event, please post!
Helmut and I would like to see an example. The help docs on

Re: [Flashcoders] MovieClip prototype
Hello :)
you can use VEGAS (http://vegas.riaforge.org/) my openSource framework for
example... with this class DisplayFactory and the method createChild or
attachChild :
1 - download the project on RIAForge or use a Subversion client like
TortoiseSVN to upload all the versionning project with the url :
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/
2 - install the AS2/trunk/src directory of the project in your Flash
classpath preferences...
3 - use my DisplayFactory class with your custom class... you can find an
example in the directory AS2/trunk/bin/test/vegas/util/factory with the file
DisplayFactory.fla :
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/vegas/util/factory/
you can use too my vegas.util.ConstructorUtil class with the method
createVisualInstance() :
import vegas.util.ConstructorUtil ;
var mc1:MyButton = ConstructorUtil.createVisualInstance( MyButton , mc1 ) ;
var mc2:MyButton = ConstructorUtil.createVisualInstance( MyButton , mc2 ) ;
PS : my french tutorial to install VEGAS -
http://www.ekameleon.net/blog/index.php?2006/03/05/27--vegas-installation
If you work in AS2.. you can too create a custom class who extend MovieClip
and use a movieclip symbol in your library with the link parameters of the
symbol.
EKA+ :)

I have lots of MCs working as buttons on my movie

I need to have a listener to detect which MC has an

Is that possible?

JSON is more fast than XML in ActionScript ;) You can use JSON or EDEN : In my OpenSource framework (VEGAS) you can find JSON and EDEN implementation ... more speed, and keep the type of the properties (in xml you must check the string and transform the type after the parsing) The Eden page project : http://code.google.com/p/edenrr/ Vegas my OpenSource framework : http://osflash.org/vegas or http://code.google.com/p/vegas/ The SVN directory of the project : http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/ The examples in http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/ The JSON examples (JSON 01.fla and JSON 02.fla) : http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/vegas/string/ The Eden examples : http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/buRRRn/eden/ The tools in the ASGard Extension to use JSON and EDEN : - http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/net/ ( JSONLoader.fla and EdenLoader.fla) - http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/config/ ( a config tool for your applications) - http://svn1.cvsdude.com/osflash/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/system/(Localization 02 - Eden.fla) For me ... the xml is really a no-ECMAScript solution to use external datas with Flash ;) EKA+ :) 2007/3/9, Merrill, Jason [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Why not using JSON? I haven't used it yet but this seems like a good opportunity from the examples I've studied. Because JSON is Javascript and more suited for AJAX applications - IMO it would take a lot more work using JSON in Flash than XML to get it working in Flash while achieving the same outcome.

So assume main loads sub into a path _root.sub and sub has _lockroot to

If I trace _root from sub, it prints _level0.sub as it should.
However when I load sub for the second time (with different parameters),
_root stops pointing to _level0.sub and reverts back to _level0.
Even more strange, sub initializes some webservices and if i do:
trace 1:+_root
var myWS = new webservice
myWS.onSuccess = onSuccess
onSuccess = function () {
trace 2:+_root
}
It will print:
1:_level0.sub
2:_level0.sub
the first time sub is loaded, and
1:_level0.sub
2:_level0
the second time.
Has anyone seen this behavior before?

Re: [Flashcoders] Adding a function to the String prototype
Hello :)
If you use the strict typing with var s:String you use the AS2 class
interpretor and you must override the String.as file in the
en/firstRun/classes/FP8 directory in your flash install path.
The intrinsic of the String core class must be changed by default in AS2.
The String class isn't dynamic !
For me if you want overrides your Core Objects in think you can use Core2 :
http://code.google.com/p/core2/
This library implement all ECMAScript methods in the core class (Array,
String, etc...). In the AS2 version you can use the custom intrinsic class
of Core2 for example to compare the Adobe class and the Core2 class.
eKA+ :)
2007/2/13, Pete Miller [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I thought this was as easy as:
String.prototype.traceFoo = function():Void {
trace(foo);
}
var s:String = new String();
s.traceFoo();
But that results in an error, There is no method with the name
'traceFoo'. Well, duh, traceFoo doesn't exist until the code executes,
but how do you tell the compiler that? How does one add a function to
String?

Re: [Flashcoders] extends MovieClip
Hello :)
try this code :
class Component extends MovieClip
{
// constructor
function Component()
{
}
/ Init AsBroadcaster
static private var _INIT_BROADCASTER_ =
_global.AsBroadcaster.initialize( Component.prototype ) ;
public var addListener:Function ;
public var broadcastMessage:Function ;
public var removeListener:Function ;
/
public function onPress():Void
{
// your code
this.broadcastMessage( onClick , this) ;
}
}
If you want use a method inside the class... no problemo but now if you want
use a listener and a movieclip who extend this class :
var mc:MovieClip ; // the movieclip in the _root for example
// Inherit the custom class
mc.__proto__ = Component.prototype ;
Component.prototype.call(mc) ;
mc.addListener(this) ;
this.onClick = function ( target:MovieClip )
{
trace( click : target ) ;
}
If you want a better solution .. you can use my openSource framework VEGAS (
http://vegas.riaforge.org/ ) and the package vegas.util.factory.. in this
package you can find the class DisplayFactory :
http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/src/vegas/util/factory/DisplayFactory.as
If you want test this class..
1 - download vegas
2 - install in your actionscript preference (in flash) the classpath of
vegas in AS2/trunk/src
3 - Test the examples in AS2/trunk/bin/test/vegas/util/factory :
http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/vegas/util/factory/
You can use the composition pattern and not the extend pattern to control a
movieclip... in my framework you can use the DisplayObject AS2 class in the
asgard.display package.

Hey all,
Is it possible to use a class extends MovieClip on a pre-existing

};
};
... but I can't see how to set this up (I'm using ActionScript 2.0,
but is there a 3.0 only solution?).
If not, what do people think is the most elegant way to handle this,
e.g.:
class blah {
public function blah( caller:MovieClip ) {
caller.onRelease = function() {
(blah instance).handleRelease();
};
};
public function handleRelease() {
// handle release here
};
};
...I'd like to make this as seamless as possible for the graphic

I would appreciate your thoughts and indeed the thoughts of anyone else, on my use of a config file for this project. Not sure if a config file is the best solution for what I am doing. Basically the CDROM consists of 60 separate pages / sections. I have just used 60 labels on the timeline for these e.g 1_1 1_2 2_1 2_2 Etc I have not created separate swf files for each of the 60 sections as the content of most sections is simply a video clip or one sentence of text. I therefore thought it was more manageable to keep all the sections within one flash movie. All video clips are external flv files. I have also set up the navigation menu like this, with 60 labels. The idea of using a config file is to set various things for each section such as: What video clip to play The Page title Which label of the navigation menu mc to display Which buttons to display e.g forward / backward Which label to navigate to when any button is clicked Assign actions to visible buttons etc The idea of doing it this way is to prevent there being lots of code in all the 60 labels across the timeline. Hence the configuration file would have details of what actions to take upon arriving at each of the 60 sections. Does the above solution sound like the right way to go? Or can you suggest a better solution. The application is PC only and is being developed with Flash 8.

I'd choose XML if you had a much more complex configuration task that needed lots of nested config (unlikely unless you've got a huge sprawling app - you can handle most situations by choosing your key=value keynames appropriately) or if your config involved chunks of (possibly unicode) textual data. I wouldn't use JSON for configuration as I find it far less readable - it's primarily a serialisation/data interchange format rather than a configuration file format.

I Use FlashPaper in FMS application with a sharing display of the internal component in the FlashPaper swf and this component is bugged and very limit. Now for me in AS2, i repeat, the good solution is to use a custom flip book with dynamic content. You can load in a MovieClip : swf/jpg/png/gif/external datas... FlashPaper is just a little tool with a bad API. For me if you want extend the FlashPaper.. use ActionScript and external tools (PHP/JAVA/etc...) and you must create your application.

Re: [Flashcoders] problem moving an object
Hello :)
1 - eq keyword is depreciated !! don't use eq but the == operator :)
if ( x == 2)
{
// do it
}
2 - to move a movieclip, a simple example :
// the speed of the move
var speed = 10 ;
// the max x position
var xMax = 500 ;
mc.onEnterFrame = function()
{
this._x += speed ;
if ( mc._x xMax )
{
delete this.onEnterFrame ;
}
}
3 - better solution if you use the Tween class (exist in FlashMX2004 and
Flash8 with a FP7 or FP8 compiler in AS2), you can find this class in the
documentation of flash 8 in the reference of the components. Example :
import mx.transitions.Tween ;
import mx.transitions.easing.* ;
var tw:Tween = new Tween( mc , _x, Elastic.easeOut, mc._x , 500 , 24 ) :
tw.stop() ;
mc.onPress = function
{
tw.start() ;
}
You can use the Elastic, Bounce, Back, Expo, etc.. class to launch the
interpolation with a custom easing effect :)
The tween class is the work of robertpenner : http://www.robertpenner.com

Re: [Flashcoders] Shorhand for if statement without else statement
hello :)
I don't understand you question ? why you don't use the if keyword ?
if ( isNaN(x) ) x = 0 ;
you can use the || operator too
function write ( txt )
{
var message = txt || empty message ;
trace(message) ;
}
write(hello) ; // output : hello
write() ; // output : empty message
if you use the cond?true:false operator to return a true value... you can
use directly the condition with the object.
if ( myObject )
{
trace(myObject exist !!!) ;
}
myObject is true if is defined and false if is undefined.

For that specific example, you can usually turn lines like

return Boolean( object );
as long as object != 0 and your code doesn't mind getting a false

of a null. Most objects, as long as they exist, evaluate to Boolean
true.
Really, though, the ternary operator is confusing enough as is. It tends
to be a lot easier to read and maintain plain old if-statements in the

Re: RE: [Flashcoders] how to tell if you're running in the ide
Hello :)
With VEGAS my openSource framework you can use my vegas.logging package :
Page project : http://vegas.riaforge.org/
Example : in the souces in the AS2/trunk/bin/test/vegas/logging package
1 - use a log library to create channels to debug you application with muli
external targets (trace, SOS console, Firebug, FlashInspector etc..)
You can enabled or disabled you logs when you want :)
My log model is based on the AS3 mx.logging framework in Flex2 SDK (
polymorphism but not the same implementation in the class, i use bubbling
events to propagate the logs)
2 - use the class asgard.system.Application to determinates if you are in a
web application, standalone or flash ide application etc...
http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/src/asgard/system/Application.as
ASGard in an extension of VEGAS :)
example :
import asgard.system.Application ;
if ( Application.isFlashIDE() )
{
// initialize log model
}
else
{
// do nothing !
}
EKA+ :)
2007/1/26, John Mark Hawley [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
You can also set up your code along these lines:
var inTestMovie:Boolean = false;
trace( inTestMovie = true );
if (inTestMovie)
{
// do wacky test movie stuff
}
else
{
// do normal stuff
}
Then you can just turn off trace statements when you want to see the
'normal' behavior, and leave them on when you want your 'test movie'
behavior. You're probably turning off trace statements on your deliverables
anyway.
If you do a done of stuff like this, though, it might be best to use a
preprocessor on your source and have it dump out two different code branches
for you. (I don't have any recommendations on AS preprocessors; I had to
throw one together in Perl at work myself.)

Re: [Flashcoders] AS 2 Logging Library
Hello :)
yes the unit tests of the XPanelTarget (and the vegas.logging package) are
in progress... for the moment the XPanel bug in MTASC ! :( Sorry for this
problem :)
I want clear this bug in the class this next week-end
PS : i have add a new target little time ago with the FireBugTarget and you
can test now this target with the FireBug extension (
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1843/)
For the moment in my projects i use in windows the SOS console and in other
system the FlashInspector... The Xpanel is a good panel but i must search
the problem of my target in MTASC !
My objective is to do my personal console with Apollo when apollo will be in
this beta or final version !
2007/1/25, Andy Herrman [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I like what I see so far for VEGAS, especially the XPanel target.
However, I'm getting a weird problem where if I build the SWF using
the Flash IDE everything works, but if I use MTASC the logs don't make
it to XPanel. XPanel does clear the last set of logs, so it's at
least initializing its connection, but the logs themselves don't seem
to be making it. And it's all the same code.
Here's my test code:
--
import vegas.logging.Log;
import vegas.logging.LogEventLevel;
import vegas.logging.ILogger;
import vegas.logging.targets.XPanelTarget;
import vegas.logging.targets.TraceTarget;
class TestMain {
private static var LOG:ILogger;
private var i:Number = 0;
public static function main(rootMC:MovieClip):Void {
Stage.align = LT;
Stage.scaleMode = noScale;
rootMC.stop();
var target:XPanelTarget = new XPanelTarget(Test);
target.includeLines = true;
target.includeLevel = true;
target.includeTime = true;
target.includeCategory = true;
target.filters = [*];
target.level = LogEventLevel.ALL;
Log.addTarget(target);
var traceTarget:TraceTarget = new TraceTarget();
traceTarget.includeLines = true;
traceTarget.includeLevel = true;
traceTarget.includeTime = true;
traceTarget.includeCategory = true;
traceTarget.filters = [*];
traceTarget.level = LogEventLevel.ALL;
Log.addTarget(traceTarget);
LOG = Log.getLogger(TestMain);
var t:TestMain = new TestMain(rootMC);
}
function TestMain(rootMC:MovieClip) {
initMovie();
}
function initMovie():Void {
LOG.info(initMovie);
setInterval(this, 'log', 2000);
}
private function log():Void {
LOG.debug(Debug + i);
LOG.error(Error + i);
LOG.fatal(Fatal + i);
LOG.info(Info + i);
LOG.warn(Warn + i);
LOG.info(Test {0} formatting {1} of {2} doom, true, i, testy);
i++;
}
}
--
The FLA has the following on the first frame:
--
TestMain.main(this);
--
The trace target always works, but the XPanel target only works when
built from the Flash IDE.
To build I'm using FlashDevelop, with code injection turned on,
UseMain turned off, and UseMX turned on.
Any idea why this might be happening?

I looked at VEGAS actually, but wasn't sure whether I could use it.
I'm not really clear on how the Mozilla license handles linking.
Specifically, if I don't modify any of the VEGAS code and simply use
its classes and such in my own code, does my code have to fall under
the MPL? I couldn't really tell from reading the license. If it will
require my code to be MPL (or any other open source license) I won't
be able to use it, as the company isn't going to allow that.

Often multi-dimensional arrays are just crying out to be single arrays of objects and if their wish is granted, your code becomes amazingly small and elegant as your reward for granting their wish. I agree - IMO best and most flexible way is an array of objects (which objectg may have properties that are arrays of objects, etc.).
